PATRIOTISM
➤1500s word "Patriot" was first recorded.
➤1700s word "Patriotism" was first recorded
►Refer to "a member of a resistance movement or a freedom fighter"
➤Derived from Greek word "Patriotes", "fellow-countryman or lineage member."
➤The root of this word, in turn, means "fatherland".
The word patriotism is a noun that means "devoted love, support, and defense of one's
country; national loyalty."
Refers to the feeling of attachment and commitment to a country, nation, or political
community.

Can be viewed as a "NATIONAL PRIDE" a feeling of love, devotion and sense of


attachment to a homeland or the country.

This attachment can be a combination of many different:


 Feeling
 Language relating to one's own homeland
 Ethnic
 Cultural
 Political and Historical aspects

The patriot believes that both the system of government and the people of their country
are inherently good and work together for a better quality of life.

Nationalism
➤Loyalty and devotion to a nation
➤ Sense of national consciousness
➤Promotion of culture and interests as opposed to other nations or groups

Basic Concepts of Nationalism


 Ideology and movement defined by promoting the interests of a particular nation,
in particular with the aim of acquiring and maintaining nation's sovereignty over its
country of origin.
 Nation should regulate itself, free from outside intervention.
 Aims to build and maintain a single national identity
 Seeks to preserve and encourage a nation's traditional culture.

TYPES OF NATIONALISM
CIVIC NATIONALISM
 Civic nationalism defines the nation as an association of people who identify
themselves as belonging to the nation, who have equal and shared political
procedures.
 According to the principles of Civic nationalism, the nation is not based on common
ethnic ancestry, but is a political entity whose core identity is not ethnicity.
✓ Political Entity X Ethnicity

ETHNIC NATIONALISM
➤ Also known as ethno-nationalism
➤ Is a form of nationalism wherein the nation is defined in terms of ethnicity.
➤ The central theme of ethnic nationalists is that nations are defined by a shared
heritage, which usually includes a common language, a common faith, and a common
ethnic ancestry.
➤ It also includes ideas of a culture shared between members of the group, and with
their ancestors.

CREOLE NATIONALISM
➤ Refers to the ideology that emerged in independence movements among the creoles
(descendants of the colonizers).
➤ Allegiance to the Napoleonic states was rejected, and increasingly the creoles
demanded independence.
➤ Creole nationalists sought independent nationhood under Creole control. They typically
did not give weight to the native or mixed-race peoples who comprised the great
majority of the population in most Latin-American colonies.

NATIVIST NATIONALISM
➤ Similar to creole or territorial types of nationalism, but which defines belonging to a
nation solely by being born on its territory.
➤ In countries where strong nativist nationalism exists, people who were not born in the
country are seen as lesser nationals than those who were born there, and are called
"immigrants" even if they became naturalized.
➤ It is cultural as people will never see a foreign-born person as one of them, and is
legal, as such people are banned for life from holding certain jobs, especially government
jobs.
➤ This nationalism is common in the Americas both in daily life and in legal and work
areas.

ECONOMIC NATIONALISM
➤ Refers to an ideology that favors state interventionism in the economy, with policies
that emphasize domestic control of the economy, labor and capital formation, even if
this requires the imposition of tariffs and other restrictions on the movement of labor,
goods and capital.
RELIGIOUS NATIONALISM
➤ Religious nationalism is the relationship of nationalism to a particular religious belief,
dogma or affiliation where a shared religion can be seen to contribute to a sense of
national unity, a common bond among the citizens of the nation.
➤ Saudi Arabian, Iranian, Egyptian, Iraqi and the Pakistani-Islamic nationalism are some
examples.

TERRITORIAL NATIONALISM
Territorial nationalists assume that all inhabitants of a particular nation owe allegiance
(loyalty) to their country of birth or adoption.
Citizenship is idealized by territorial nationalists.

RACIAL NATIONALISM
Is an ideology that advocates a racial definition of national identity. Racial nationalism
seeks to preserve a given race through policies such as banning race mixing and the
immigration of other races. Specific examples are Black nationalism and white
nationalism

SPORTS NATIONALISM
Sport spectacles command worldwide audiences as nations battle for supremacy and the
fans invest intense support for their national team.
Increasingly people have tied their loyalties and even their cultural identity to national
teams.

retirement home.

HUMOR AND POSITIVITY

Optimism, humor, and positivity are valued traits in the Philippines.


Filipinos love celebrations and festivities. The country has a long list of national holidays,
and many provinces and cities have their own sets of local holidays. Meanwhile, they still
find quality time for their families to celebrate birthdays, Christmases, and other
instances.

At the same time, in the face of difficult or challenging situations, members of the
community are encouraged to look at the brighter side of things.

In a place where natural calamities are commonplace, humor and positivity work as a
coping mechanism, much like how some children laugh to hide their embarrassment
after slipping or falling.

one of the more familiar phrases used in the country.
 It is perhaps the most representative of how Filipinos value adaptability and quick
thinking.

to elements that cannot be controlled.

already being practiced in many pre-colonial societies and Islam has been firmly
established in the southern islands even before the pre-Hispanic era.
 These days, religion still plays a big part in society and the everyday lives of
Filipinos.
 The Catholic Church's views still affect the passing of some laws, most towns still
hold fiestas to honor their patron saints, and many regular non-working national
holidays are dedicated to celebrating various religious activities and events.
 To many Filipinos, religion helps shape their values and principles.

FILIPINO HOSPITALITY
 Filipinos are naturally hospitable
 Guests can be expected to extend a very warm welcome to their guests regardless
of where they come from, how well they know their host, and why they're visiting
someone's home.
 Hosts typically provide their guests with food and entertainment and, if there's
time, a tour around the local destinations.
 In the Philippines, no one leaves with an empty stomach. Before they leave, guests
are even entreated to take home pasalubong or souvenirs, which often come in the
form of delicacies and local sweets.

RESPECT FOR THE ELDERLY


Filipinos have high regard for their elderly. including their parents.
Even young adults still practice taking their elders' hands and saying "mano po" when
they arrive at their homes.

INDUSTRIOUS ATTITUDE
Another one of the great characteristics of Filipinos is their being resourceful and
industrious.
They are determined to finish their set goals despite difficult circumstances and limited
resources.

GENEROSITY
Filipinos are naturally helpful and generous people.
They give as much as they can and extend help to family members and even strangers -
when needed.
This is seen through the abundance of charity drives and foundations in the country,
especially when calamities arise.
